May cotton closed sharply higher due to short covering on Friday as it consolidated some of the decline off February's high. The high-range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Monday. Stochastics and the RSI are oversold but remain neutral to bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near-term. If May extends the decline off February's high, the 50% retracement level of the 2020-2021-rally crossing at 74.20 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20-day moving average crossing at 85.97 would signal that a short-term low has been posted.
